About the role
Applications are invited for the post of clinical fellow in Gastroenterology. The post is ideally suited to an enthusiastic individual who has completed core medical training and wishes to build on their experience prior to further specialty training.
This is an exciting opportunity to experience inpatient and outpatient gastroenterology in a DGH setting. We have 3 substantive consultant gastroenterologists and 3 locum consultant gastroenterologists with specialist interests that include inflammatory bowel disease, nutrition, advanced endoscopy, pancreaticobiliary medicine, small bowel disease and academic research.

Our clinical fellow is required to contribute to inpatient care on the wards and outpatient clinics. Training in endoscopy will be available, depending on the post-holder’s level of experience.
Currently inpatient work is organised into 4 week periods, overlapping with the consultant rota to provide continuity. Approximately one fourth of the time will be spent on inpatient duties which include attending consultant ward rounds , leading ward rounds on the other days, supervising junior colleagues and participation in the weekly radiology meeting/MDM meeting. 3-4 outpatient clinics under consultant supervision are scheduled during a normal week. These are predominantly general gastroenterology and specialist IBD clinics.
